Battery Channel Manager

**About Amber**

Amber is an entirely new way of thinking about buying, banking and selling energy - where home energy technology works to put money back in customers’ pockets and accelerate the renewable energy transition. Everything we build is about making that possible and putting traditional retailers in the shade.

We believe the cheapest, fastest and most rewarding way to reach 100% renewables is to automate the growing wave of home batteries and EVs. Customers get direct access to the real-time wholesale electricity price and the technology to shift energy usage to the times when cheaper renewables are available in the grid and export to the grid at times when the price they can be paid for it is highest.

We are backed by Australia’s leading VCs (including Square Peg Capital and Main Sequence Ventures), impact-focused investors and individuals, and most recently by Commonwealth Bank, NRMA and Gentrack.

We are growing rapidly and have thousands of customers who love what we are doing and a great product that will play a significant role in driving Australia and the world towards a renewable future.

We’re now at a critical moment in taking the business to real scale as we disrupt a huge market for the better. You’d be a part of a rapidly growing team of over 150, with expertise across energy, technology, marketing, and operations. We’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace and a great culture of people who love coming to work to build a better world.

Amber for Batteries unlocks more value for homeowners with batteries, driving down their energy bills and their payback periods. By storing energy when it’s cheap and exporting it to the grid for wholesale feed-in rates of up to $19/kWh, Amber’s software is completely changing the economics of home batteries and accelerating the energy transition.

Amber for EVs is our EV smart charging solution that helps EV owners save on their charging costs by using more cheap, renewable energy - whether that’s their own excess solar energy, or renewable energy that’s abundant in the grid. In 2025, we are kicking off development of our game-changing vehicle-to-grid technology.

**About the role**

Amber has the ambition to be an indispensable business partner to every solar & battery installer in Australia. Since Amber drives better battery payback periods and higher ROI, installers are able to sell more batteries and bigger batteries. Through partnering with us, we help these installer businesses succeed and grow, and help more homeowners unlock the full value of their devices.

It’s a very exciting time for battery adoption. The federal government’s $2.3 billion Cheaper Home Batteries Program will drive even more new battery installs by providing around a 30% discount on the upfront cost of installing eligible small-scale battery systems.

We’re looking for a highly motivated & self-driven salesperson to join our installer team and continue to add new partnerships and grow this battery channel.

As a Battery Channel Manager, you’d be working in a team at the cutting edge of new energy technology, as a part of Amber’s Sales, Marketing & Growth team. You’ll work closely with teams across the business, including marketing, product, operations, and with external partners, to help grow Amber’s automation products in line with the objectives of the retail business.
